Bacterial Infections Posted: 01-11-07 21:38pm
Hi girls,
last week when I was to my doctor I had a
swab done as I as noticing green
discharge. My doctor called me yesterday
and she told me that its from an over
growth of bacteria, and that it is normal
during pregnancy and that she does not
want to treat it with antibiotics, but has
told me to eat lots of yogurt. She said
that if it is driving me nuts she will
prescribe an antibiotic for me. It is not
really bothering me. I am just achy down
there, but I think that that is mostly
because I have been constipated off and on
for weeks now.
Has anyone else had this problem? If so,
how was it treated if at all?
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks,
mary

What kind of bacterial infection is it?
Green discharge would worry me.

Hi ingi,
it is sometimes green, other times just
white. Its not itchy or anything and it
doesn't bother me at all other than the
fact I know it is there.
My doctor told me not to worry about it,
that it is very typical in alot of
pregnancies.
